Of Mice & Men Cancel Tour Dates Due to Frontman’s Hospitalization

Fans of Of Mice & Men who were slated to see the final days of the band’s current tour were given some disappointing news; the shows have been cancelled.

Over the weekend, frontman Austin Carlile was admitted into the hospital and was advised by doctors to stay overnight, though there has been no word on what exactly led to Carlile being admitted in the first place.

The band took to Facebook after his admittance to release a statement about the cancellation of the final dates of their tour and how they will make it up to those unfortunate fans.

“Of Mice & Men regrets to announce that the remaining dates of the ‘Full Circle Tour’ will be cancelled. Therefore, tonight’s [Sunday’s] show at Soma in San Diego and Tuesday’s show at El Plaza Condesa in Mexico City will no longer go ahead. Lead singer Austin Carlile was admitted to a hospital yesterday morning and per doctor’s orders has been kept in overnight for evaluation. The band regrets not being able to perform for their fans and hopes to be back in both cities as soon as possible. Refunds for both shows will be available at point of purchase, however Of Mice & Men are planning to reschedule both shows for a later date in the year. We will have more news on this in the coming weeks and tickets holders are welcome to retain their tickets, as they will remain valid for these rescheduled dates.”

In a twist, as pointed out by Loudwire, this isn’t the first time the band has had to cancel tour dates due to Carlile being hospitalized. Last year, the band has to cancel some European stops because Carlile had gotten a neck injury that he never got checked out. It ended up pushing at the back of his heart and due to previous heart issues, he had to remain hospitalized for several days.

The now-cancelled remaining days of the “Full Circle Tour” was in support of the band’s recently released album, Restoring Force: Full Circle, the reissue of 2014’s Restoring Force.

Last week, Of Mice & Men released the music video for their new song “Broken Generation” from Restoring Force: Full Circle which is scheduled to be released on Feb. 24 through Rise Records.

Of Mice & Men Call Out the “Broken Generation”

image

Of Mice & Men have just released their music video for their song, “Broken Generation” from their upcoming reissue of 2014’s album of the same name, Restoring Force: Full Circle.

With a title like that, it gives the impression that the California band have a lot to say about the generation that makes up part of their fanbase.

Fitting with the song of said broken generation is its music video showcasing what has become the norm in the 2000’s; everyone so glued to their electronics that they don’t even notice the things happening in front of them.

We especially loved the parts of the people at the party on their phone s rather than socializing with one another and the customer at the restaurant completely oblivious to the waitress because she’s on her phone. Sadly, it has become the norm and what’s even more sad are those that always say they will “die” if they can’t have a phone on hand (or those that are always frantically looking for an outlet to charge).

Watch the music video below.

Restoring Force: Full Circle will be released on Feb. 24.
